PILLAR

POV: You’re a nonprofit experiencing significant growth, yet you feel a twinge of guilt as others around you face challenges. I understand that sentiment deeply. In conversations with PILLAR clients, especially in the nonprofit and NGO sectors, a recurring theme emerges: while the external environment seems turbulent, their organizations are witnessing robust fundraising, impactful programs, and thriving social media engagement. It’s natural to feel apprehensive or even guilty about this success when peers are facing hardships. However, now is not the time to pull back. Instead, it’s an opportunity to double down, to be that steadfast presence amidst the storm. Think of it as steering a rescue boat through choppy waters—pressing forward is essential. Your voice, your mission, and your impact are needed now more than ever. Lean into your success, continue driving forward, and be the beacon of hope and certainty that others can look to. #NonprofitLeadership #MissionDriven #SocialImpact #FundraisingSuccess #LeanIn #Leadership #Management #Innovation #Creativity #Entrepreneurship

For years, I watched other marketing and communications professionals build amazing careers and brands while I stayed on the sidelines. I was the guy eagerly learning from their successes but never sharing my own insights. Why? Because I honestly didn’t think I had anything valuable to add. That changed when someone approached me with a project idea I truly believed in. In that moment, I realized I?did?have something to offer. One thing led to another, and I finally took the leap – and launched?PILLAR, my own communications and marketing agency. Now I’m a small business owner, I'm excited about the work while also learning so many lessons. Fun fact: despite working in marketing for years, I haven’t been great at marketing?myself?(my Instagram page has 1 post ?? ). We’re going to change that. I plan to share this journey – successes?and?stumbles – with you in real time. If you’re an entrepreneur or marketing pro who’s hesitated to put yourself out there, I get it completely. You’re not alone. I’d love to hear your experiences or fears – feel free to share in the comments. And if any of this resonates or you’ve got an idea brewing, I’m all ears.?Message me on LinkedIn if you want to chat about your idea. #Marketing #DigitalMarketing #Entrepreneurship #Startups #SmallBusiness #Innovation

I’m honored to share some recent work we’ve done with our wonderful new partner Flourish Fund. They’re an inspiring organization founded on the idea of “empowering faith-motivated givers to steward their generosity towards strategies that result in measurable outcomes for human flourishing.” Their first initiative,?Flourish: Children and Families, is truly impactful. This initiative focuses on reimagining foster care and providing much-needed support for vulnerable families. It aims to create better systems and support networks to ensure every child and family can thrive. PILLAR had the honor of leading the process of creating a “Blueprint” for Flourish Fund to share with potential donors. We worked closely with their team to distill their passion, vision, and brilliant plans into a compelling and beautifully designed prospectus that tells a story, inspires change, and encourages support. More than anything, we’d love for you to learn more about Flourish Fund and their innovative work by visiting?www.flourishfund.org. It’s a genuine privilege to work on a project that is so rich in purpose and story. If you’ve got a similar project you’d like a partner in, we’re always here to help. -Eddie PILLAR Founder + CEO

"That’s the true power of storytelling: it’s not about listing facts (though sometimes you should), but rather it's about evoking the right emotions.?It's about how people feel?when they hear about your work."

PILLAR had a milestone day recently, one that beautifully encapsulates what we stand for. Last week, we turned down a project. Why is this worth sharing? Because at PILLAR, as a leading marketing and creative agency, we focus on more than just securing business—we focus on securing the right business. We believe in making decisions that respect time and resources, ensuring that our offerings are not just good, but perfectly suited to the clients needs. We could have easily taken the job (and made a bit of cash in the process). But integrity and honesty are the cornerstones of our philosophy. If we’re not the best fit for what a client needs, we won’t sell a makeshift solution. Instead, we’ll guide you to the right one—even if it means sending you to Gimbels. Why choose PILLAR? + Integrity First: We promise to never waste your time or investment. + Honest Guidance: If we’re not perfect for your needs, we’ll help you find who is. + Genuine Solutions: We provide strategies and services that truly benefit you.
